According to Matsuki Hiroshi, author of Goyo eshi Kano-ke nochi to chikara (Blood and power of the Kano family, painters in attendance to the Shogun) (Tokyo: Kodansha, 1994), Tansetsu is the second son of Kano Tan'yu (1602-1674), founder of the Kajibashi Kano school in Edo (Tokyo). Tansetsu was awarded the title Hogen in 1715. His extant works are quite rare.
